Brandenburg
The Federal States of Germany
The federal state of Brandenburg is located in eastern Germany and encloses the federal capital Berlin in its centre. Brandenburg is one of the five new federal states and not only the largest of them but also the federal state with the most inland waters. The current state capital Potsdam used to be residence and garrison town of Prussian kings. Its historical and art-historical significance is acknowledged today as a UNESCO world heritage site. The federal state of Brandenburg plays a major part for local recreation in the capital region Berlin-Brandenburg, but chances of economic growth are quite limited in spite of the highly attractive city of Berlin.

Computer Games
This film covers the topic of computer games in a variety of ways and from many different angles. Apart from the fascina- tion of computer games for users, the historical development as well as the production of computer games are described. The established genres are introduced, the guidelines of the German BPjM are explained. In light of recent public discussions, a neutral overview of the pros and cons of playing computer games is given, and different kinds of player behaviour are outlined. In this film, the pupils will recognise many aspects of their favourite pastime that encourage an independent, constructive use of this medium and reinforce their media competency. The film and teaching material are very closely related to the real-life situation.
